Getting Braces |
Attention to
the unique orthodontic needs of children and young
adults is very special, very important, and very
demanding. What makes orthodontic care for young
people different from dental care for adults is the
simple fact that children are growing. Their mouths
are growing and developing, along with their bodies
and minds. |
It is our
intent to grow healthy teeth and mouths. In
addition to that, we help develop healthy attitudes
about responsible oral hygiene and care at home.
While most dentists are trained to look after the
inevitable breakdown that occurs with the aging
adult mouth, the orthodontic specialties assist in
building strong mouths, strong teeth, and a strong
sense of patient confidence and self-esteem. |
In providing
orthodontic care for the child and young adult
patients, we place strong emphasis on prevention.
Through early education, motivation, and
intervention of developing problems, the experience
of orthodontics can be pleasant and rewarding. |
We take the
same special care with our adult patients as well.
Today, more than 30% of orthodontic patients are
over the age of 18. Crooked teeth, improper
bite, overcrowding and spacing are now being
corrected in many people regardless of their age.
The major difference between adolescent and adult
orthodontic treatment is that the adult’s teeth may
take a little longer to move into an ideal position
because there is not growth occurring.
Adults now have more choices than ever in
creating a beautiful smile. From
traditional braces
to “invisible” braces,
the number of effective and cosmetically pleasing
treatment options continues to increase. Adults have
their own special needs to be attended to, and our
friendly staff works hard to make sure their needs
are met and their experience with braces in a good
one. |
